This is the most Mariner thing to ever happen and is a perfect metaphor for not just this season, but perhaps our entire history.

That, my friends, is what our ancestors would have called an omen, and we would have had no choice but to sacrifice one goat for every one of Ichiros career base hits.

Enshittification of every damn thing. Ichiro deserves better.

How are you going to immortalize someone with a statue, then use such bad materials it breaks at the unveiling.

As long as the man of the hour can laugh at this, it’s all good. Congrats Ichiro!
